Right, the players are out, under an overcast sky, and we're about to start. Kemar Roach will take the first new ball ...

9.55am: The covers are coming off! The start has been rescheduled for 10.15am, with a full 50-over schedule to come. Plenty of time for you to set up the steel drums.

9.45am: The St Vincent shower has been upgraded to a squall - a small but important escalation. The covers are still on, though we've not lost any overs yet. West Indies' battery of towering, bone-shuddering, Babylon fire-breathing quicks wobbly medium-pace allrounders will doubtless be licking their lips up in the dressing room ...

9.30am: So, the covers are on and the start has been delayed. It doesn't look too heavy but we'll keep you informed.

9.20am: The coin has been tossed - and Darren Sammy has won it (for the first time in 10 attempts, no less). He's decided West Indies will have a bowl, perhaps influenced by the conditions. I'm presuming he has not based his decision on the success of his team's chasing a target on Friday ...

Anyway, West Indies are also unchanged, with the match is due to get underway in 10 minutes' time. Although another shower has just swept in, it seems.

9.10am: I'm Alan Gardner, by the way, and I'll be joined on commentary by George Binoy. No news on the toss, as yet, but we have heard that Australia will be unchanged for this match. Whether any tweaks to the West Indies line-up can facilitate a change of outcome, remains to be seen.

Apparently there are a few sprinkles around Arnos Vale, though play is expected to start on time. Let's hope a quick spritz livens up the pitch, eh?

9.05am: Hello and welcome to live coverage of the second ODI between West Indies and Australia from St Vincent. After a collapse worthy of Jenga on Friday, West Indies are 1-0 down and still looking for their first 50-over win against the Aussies in six years. Can they end the drought today? Why not have a dig around in Brydon Coverdale's preview for answers ...

11.35: Hearing that the covers are off at Arnos Vale - time for the super sopper to get to work on the outfield ...

11.10am: Reports suggest the rain has been coming down pretty heavily in St Vincent, so we don't have an idea on when play may re-start. A re-calculation of the overs is almost a certainty at this stage.

10.40: And now the covers are being hustled on, as the rain re-envelopes the ground ... Looks like we're in for another delay, while the weather vents. Could be some overs lost here too, I would think.

And here it is: there'll now be 40 overs per side, with an initial eight overs of Powerplay, then two blocks of four (batting and bowling). Bowlers will have a maximum of eight overs each.

6.2

Roach to Warner,
OUT,
bowled him! The delivery was back of a length but shot through low, clipping Warner's pad as he tried to play back before rattling into the stumps halfway up. The batsman was done by the bounce (or lack thereof) - but he had already misjudged a couple of deliveries like that today

Matthew: "These two don't have a great history when it comes to partnerships - batted together 14 times, passed 50 twice together, once was a partnership of 119. I reckon the best ODI partnership between brothers is the Waughs hitting 207 together in 1996, although their record with each other is relatively poor - brotherly love?"

Narine to bowl the final over ...

39.1

Narine to Lee,
SIX,
that's a huge hit! Lee's stepped out of his crease, got to the pitch of the ball, and lofted it far over the long-on boundary with a full and free swing of his bat

39.2

Narine to Lee,
2 runs,
will he be caught here? No. It's just out of the reach of Kieran Powell, who ran back from mid-off and dived full length. Lee had backed away and mis-timed the loft down the ground

1 bye,
Lee backs away outside leg and then tries to hit through midwicket. He misses and the ball goes between body and leg stump and beats the keeper

39.4

OUT,

no run,

2.45 pm Australia have been restricted to 154 for 9 but West Indies will have to chase 158 according to the D-L method. They were dismissed for 140 in the first ODI on a similar pitch, but you'd have to say West Indies are favourites at this point. Only just. We'll be back for the second innings in a bit ...
